That Darkness Place

I'm slipping into madness
cuz there's nowhere else to run.
Sliding down that nowhere ramp
where there's never any sun.

Finding myself back in that place
Where nothing else can reach.
That dark and lonely hurting place
that saps me like a leech.

That place I made within myself
so many years ago I know.
That dark and silent safe place
my tormentors could not go.

When did it become my prison?
Was it me who locked that gate?
When did it become a madness place
to view with such fear and hate?

Please let me go I scream!
And strike upon those walls.
I want to stop this slipping.
Please let me end this fall.

Another back when poem that I wrote during a pretty rough time in my life...
